Lo Santos

The uber talented dancer extraordinaire Lo Santos joins me today on the Spiritual Spiral Podcast. I met Lo about two years ago when she was teaching at LIT Method, a low intensity workout facility I used to attend quite regularly. Right away I was blown away by Lo's contagious and positive energy and I could instantly tell by the way she moved and danced around the room that she was an incredible dancer. Lo is originally from Guam so we talk about her upbringing, what it was like growing up on a small island in the middle of seemingly nowhere and how she first got into dance. She shares stories about early competitions where she travelled all around the world and how she ended up going to college in Hawaii. She eventually lands in New York and Los Angeles where she currently lives and after taking a brief hiatus from dance working more on the agency side of the business, she's been reinvigorated and is ready to pursue the art of dance again full time. Is Instagram good or bad for the dance community? Is it more important to work on your craft or spend more time creating a "brand?" What are some of the differences between the New York and LA dance scene? What are some of the opportunities available if you want to be a full time dancer as well as some of the challenges one can expect in the dance world? Be sure to follow Lo on Instagram @laurena22 where you can check out some of her amazing performances.
